You can find out the names of the pubs by looking at later census returns i.e.

Try and find a person born around the date of the census (in this case Littledean) if you don't know exactly what District the street would be in....

1851 Census, District 7

'The whole of the Parish of Littledean, including Dean Hill, Temple Lane, Broad Street, Silver Street, Church Street, Rufffett Redding Lane, Lodge Hill and Calamore'

Depended which way the Enumerator walked Broad Street, but 'a little work' working at later census returns, could work out where the Pubs were located. As the population grew, the Districts can be different...

ie. part of Broad Street, Littldean 1861 - is District 2

Ancestry is very slow and 'playing up' at the moment, but hope this helps showing how a list of Pubs can be obtained through on-going census returns...
